Google is now selling "certified" refurbished Pixel phones, no doubt the result of trade-ins. Currently Pixel 6a to Pixel 7 Pro are available with prices ranging from $249 to $629. #

I've been thinking about the iPad Mini 7 and whether to upgrade to it from the Mini 6. As far as I can tell, the only real reason to upgrade is to get Apple Intelligence and maybe get the maximum amount for trade-in on the Mini 6. Given that Apple Intelligence is the only real reason, I am paying attention to the reviews and so far they don't report anything compelling. I'll probably get to try some of the Apple Intelligence stuff when it becomes available for MacOS.#
